In this workshop we take your riding down to it’s foundation, then build you back up. So your body, board, and brain can work in harmony, for a season full of balanced progression in any environment.

Through an in-depth examination of the 6 snowboard fundamentals, on snow movement analysis, and detailed off snow video analysis, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how subtle body movements relate to snowboarding outcomes in a big way. By the end of the workshop you’ll be better prepared to make thoughtful adjustments to your own riding, leading to less repeat injuries, more progression, and ultimately more FUN!

We’ll explore a variety of tasks from carving, to switch riding, as well as some basic freestyle. If you’ve been snowboarding for years and find yourself plateauing this workshop is perfect for you – or – If you’ve graduated to intermediate terrain and want to make sure you’re on the right path, we got you covered. Groups will be designed based on ability and experience.

For this event we bring in “Super Instructors” like Blair McLeod, Chris Lang, and more.. Talented coaches who not only host a great lesson but also have operated ski and ride schools and have been in the role of training instructors at the highest level. This is way beyond L3.

This workshop is designed for the low-intermediate to advanced snowboarders. This workshop has a minimum participation of 4 persons to operate, if minimum participation is not met within 14 days of the start date you will receive a full refund. LIFT TICKETS INCLUDED IN REGISTRATION PRICE

Sunday

Meet Boreal Day Lodge 8:30am. We’ll spend the morning examining the relationship between body movement and board performance. Through a variety of tasks you’ll discover techniques for maintaining balance while stretching the limits of your boards design. In the afternoon we’ll focus on a single environment (example: carving, ground tricks, skidded turns, etc.) we’ll keep this on approachable terrain so you can focus on the task rather than managing a harder run. We’ll shoot video as well for later discussion off snow in the lodge.

Monday

Meet Boreal Day Lodge 8:30am. We’ll start the day off warming up and revisiting the previous day’s lessons. We’ll then adjust our focus to a second environment, (example: switch riding, side hits, short turns, etc.) upping the challenge from the previous day blending efficient movements with dynamic outcomes. We’ll finish off the day by providing an opportunity for you to have a one on one discussion with your coach where you’ll develop a short personalized plan for your season long progression.
